2010 Junior Idol Winner!

Posted on March 10, 2010

Congrats goes out to all 3 wonderful singers, Marissa, Brooke and Maura in our junior idol contest!
A big congrats to Maura for winning with her wonderful sweet angelic voice! I really enjoyed watching Maura (singing with her guitar and later keyboards-Wow!), along with all the other contestants and the talent they brought to the Schuylkill mall this year.

Here are the 3 fun digital cartoon designs for the winner, Maura and also a fun caricature for Marissa and Brooke.

I LOVED creating the bubbles for this! :)

2010 Junior Idol Winner will be Announced!

Posted on March 10, 2010

Tonight is our last show and the night we announce the winner of our Junior Idol Schuylkill County winner!

I had the pleasure of being entertained by many talented individuals, Reiley Lonergan, Zavry Jones, Maura Gownley, Brooke Unger, Marissa Arce, Dakota McGeehan, Emily Fanelli and so many more.

This was a tough competition to judge for all the contestants were very good. The only way I can describe this feeling is to compare it to the Olympics. If 6 runners are competing in the Olympics and one wins by a 10th of a second, does that make the other 5 not good enough? Not at all! The winner happened to perform the best on THAT particular day!

Along with judging this tough competition, I drew some caricatures for the few people who attended early, either to watch the show and/or support the contestants for the evening. A portion of these donations go to the Caring Soles to help the people of Haiti.

Here are some fun cartoon-likenesses along with a few photos of the contestants to enjoy.

I will post my fun creation of the digital caricatures of the top 3 idol contestant singers tonight and announce our Junior Idol winner! Stay “tooned!”

It’s always Sunny in Philadelphia!

Today was Kaleb’s first birthday and his celebration was in the northern part of Philadelphia. The event was held at a huge gymnasium and my client brought bouncing fun into the room. A balloon bounce, the cookie monster character and my funny cartoons to add character were the highlight of Kaleb’s special day. Happy Birthday!
Here a few photos from Kaleb’s sunny event!
(Now back to my drawing tablet- grin!)

Look who’s “facing” a Canadian newspaper?

Do you notice anyone familiar in this RECENT newspaper article?

What a great time I had with professional Canadian artist Kelly Gannon at the ISCA caricature convention held in Sandusky, Ohio last November.
